THE platform adopted by the New

forms constructed by that party.
They are not intended to speak out
plainly on any subject SO that the
people can know what is meant.
Their design is to conceal and cover
up; to juggle with words; to mys-
tily, puzzle aud deceive. The party
never has a policy which it has the
courage 70 advocate squarely and
openly. 1t lags behind public SEN

WHO is KlSSANE2

The Old-TIme Forger and Incendlary of
That Name Said to DO = Millionaire in
California.
NEW YORK, April Argument is to be
heard to-day before Recorder Smyth in
Part Of the Court Of General Sessions on
the application of Lawyer John B. Hart, OF
San Francisco, to quash the thlrty-three-
year-old indictment for forgery hanging
over the head Of the once noted criminal
named William kissane. The World re-
Gently contained an epitome of the remark
able career OF Kissane, who is now said to
be a millionaire railway director of San
Francisco, and to occupy prominent bust
ness position at the Golden Gate. The
strangest feature Of the whole case is the
fact that Kissaue's identity might have con-
tinued unknown for an indefinite period to
the people of San Francisco except for his
anxiety to get the old indictment out of the
way. The presentment of the grand Jury
made on November II, 1854, to which Kis-
sane's counsel desires to enter nolle prose-
qui, it is said. has practically been dead for
years. 1t was generally believed that
when Kissane was sent to Sing Sing, in
March, 1855, his sentence of two and half
years covered the two indictments against
him. But Kissane is reported to have been
threatened with exposure by an old play
fellow whose family he wronged. The
former had lived for twenty-five years on
the Pacific Slope under an assumed name
and might have continued to do so per-
haps, had he repaired the wrong. In
San Francisco intense curiosity exists
as to the identity of Kissane. In addition
to the forgery charges there are reports
that he was concerned in the burning of
the Martha Washington steamer on the
Mississippi river in 1853 and that later he
murdered man in Missouri

before the murder they saw Leavitt on
Fourth street wearing light pants, and
Their witnesses testified to his having made
emarks about killing Haddock the day of
the murder. The testimony, however, is
not wholly confined to LeaVitt, part of it
being directed against the character and

orally leave the stand more or less confused
by the severe cross-Questions of the State
Jailer James Cruikshank testified: LEA
witt visited the jail on November .: and
called on Bismarck in one of the cells, and
said to him: Give me your wife's address
and l will send her some money and we
will see that she is all right until you get
out You know, Bismarck, that l didn't
kill Haddock.' Bismarck made no reply
Leavitt said: You saw John Arensdorf
shoot, as well as me- Yes sir, yes sir
Bismarck replied. Leavitt said: We will
come out all right If you stick to the story
told you"
Louis Agnes said he had asked Bismarck
how he came to get in that bad scrape, who
did the shooting and why he put the shoot
ing on to Arensdorf. He said he put it on
to Arensdorf to save his own neck.
